A BOY of 16 was among the four victims killed in the Avonmouth waterworks blast.

Luke Wheaton died alongside Michael James, 64, Brian Vickery, 63, and Ray White, 57, when a pressurized tank at the treatment plant exploded.

One victim was reportedly thrown almost 500ft into a lake.

Tributes were last night paid to the dead as locals left flowers at the scene.
